Netflix's New Series Westside Is Basically the Reality TV Version of A Star Is Born

Netflix is debuting a new reality TV show next month, and it's basically the IRL version of A Star Is Born. On Thursday (October 11) the streaming giant dropped the trailer for this new show, which is called Westside and follows nine aspiring singer-songwriters as they attempt to pursue their dreams of stardom.

In the clip the celebrity hopefuls alternate between belting their hearts out, butting heads over their competing egos, and casually dropping one-liners like, "We're going to mine our lives for the truths we want to share." Yup. It goes deep!

You may recognize some of the faces of Westside. According to Entertainment Weekly, the cast includes Pia Toscano, who appeared on the tenth season of American Idol and placed ninth, as well as Taz Zavala, Arika Gluck, James Byous, Caitlin Ary, Leo Gallo, Alexandra Kay, Austin Kolbe, and Sean Patrick Murray, all of whom have already released a few songs on their own, to minor success. On the show they'll put out at least 18 songs, per EW, likely a mix of solo singles and group collabs.

Watch the trailer for yourself, below:

Westside starts streaming on Netflix November 9. If you're already hungry for more of this Glee meets The Hills goodness, you can stream one of the songs featured in the trailer, "We Are the Ones," right now.

This isn't the only music-inspired movie or TV show premiering this year. You also have Bohemian Rhapsody, the Freddy Mercury biopic, to look forward to in November, as well as Vox Lux, the explosive indie movie coming out in December in which Natalie Portman plays a Gaga-esque pop star.
